the Upsetting Cost of Kashrut

Ilan Shiloah, an Israeli businessman, is upset about the report regarding the cost of food and the affect of kashrut on the prices.
Shiloah responded to the report saying that the religious are "slaughtering us with the cost of kashrut that they use to fund the parasites".

parasites? in an industry where they actually go to work and cannot be accused of being parasites? Shiloah should be happy that the religious (Haredi specifically) are working and earning an honest days wage. He can be upset about the cost of kashrut, but the insult is misplaced.
